"......" Shun Yin looked at them wordlessly.

Mu Changzhou pulled his lips, looked at her, and said, "Although it is a gift that Mrs. deserves, it is time to face the battle now." ”

Shun Yin glanced at him before speaking: "The most important thing is to retreat the enemy first." ”

The two hurriedly straightened up, Hu Xiao'er's brain turned back, and he hurriedly said: "There are so many of them, which side are we going to meet first?" ”

Mu Changzhou stared at Yutu: "The soldiers and horses on standby last night were immediately mobilized, and the two roads rushed to the southward mountain pass to intercept Tubo at any time; ordered the Ganzhou soldiers and horses to advance to Liangzhou as soon as possible and support them to the south; The rest of the troops and horses were all transferred to the northern pass. ”

As soon as they heard that the soldiers and horses were moving, Zhang Junfeng and Hu Xiao'er immediately went out and sent orders separately to make arrangements.

As if in response, the sound of hurried horses' hooves was suddenly heard outside, and a soldier was shouting and reporting: "The enemy is coming!" ”

Shunyin turned his head to look, and as expected, he came.

Mu Changzhou stretched out his hand behind her shoulder: "Let's go." ”

Outside the tent, the soldiers had brought their horses.

After receiving the order, Hu Xiaoer and Zhang Jun quickly got on their horses and led the soldiers and horses to wait outside the camp.

Far away, you can also hear the rapid drum that has just sounded on the city of Liangzhou.

Shunyin walked briskly to the horse, stepped on the stirrups, and turned his head to look at the side.

Mu Changzhou listened to the report of the soldiers, turned over on his horse, pulled the reins of her horse closely, and walked forward with her: "It is the remnants of the mixed in that are causing trouble in small shares, this is just the beginning, if you guess correctly, their army wants the remnants to attract the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou to clear it, and then take the opportunity to press in." ”

The rear lined up with soldiers and horses immediately followed.

Shun Yin followed him to the right, thinking about the soldiers and horses outside the gates of Liangzhou on all sides, at first he thought that such strict precautions were aimed at the Central Plains, but now that he thinks about it, maybe he has been ready for this day, but there are still too many heavy troops on both sides: "I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on Liangzhou alone." ”

Mu Changzhou said: "It's not enough, although the elite of Liangzhou is good, they are all equipped with the best military horses in the military horse farm, but the belly and back attack is still critical." Last night I had arranged for the surrounding states to send troops to wait for reinforcements, and it was better to have more reinforcements other than that. ”

Shunyin's mind moved: "Central Plains? ”

Mu Changzhou met her gaze: "Wujian should return to Qinzhou." ”

Shunyin nodded: "I'll arrange it." ”

The horse stepped on the narrow road, and Mu Changzhou stopped: "You go to the city to hold on, command the scouts, and respond to each other with me." ”

Shun Yin stopped, and said after a moment's silence: "Okay." ”

Mu Changzhou turned his head and beckoned back, separated the people and horses, clamped the horse's belly, and rode out.

Later, Hu and Zhang led people to gallop to follow.

The drums on the top of the city continued to beat.

Shunyin saw him go away, did not stop, led the rest of the men and horses, and rushed to the city.

When I arrived outside the city of Liangzhou, I felt the attack of the enemy soldiers, and there were bursts of sharp whistles in the distance, and there was a faint sound of shouting and killing.

Shun Yin covered his left ear from time to time, turned his head on horseback to find the source, and it seemed to be northeast.

That was indeed the person who had been infiltrated by the remnants of the Liu clan, and that was the direction outside the gate, where they had been hiding last night.

There shouldn't be many people who rely on trade routes to get in, but these remnants know Liangzhou too well, and they are still troublesome.

The east city gate opened slightly, Shunyin rushed in first, just got off the horse, and saw that the people on the road in the distance were running in a panic, and the shops closed one after another.

She didn't stop, breathed a sigh of relief, hurried to the letter post under the city, and when she came out again, she had a freshly written letter in her hand.

Two or three people from the scout camp arrived, and the rest were still spying around in turn, as she had requested.

One of them approached and whispered: "Madame, the remnants of the mixed in are rushing in the direction of the Central Plains." ”

Shun Yin clenched the letter, knowing in his heart that he had been staring at the direction of the Central Plains last night, and these people rushed there, probably to hide in the shadows and cut off their path to the Central Plains to move rescue troops.

She asked, "Did the news go to the manager?" ”

"Yes, I've gone to arraignment."

Shun Yin handed out the letter and explained in a low voice: "Their numbers alone are not enough to stop them, but it is a little tricky to hide in the shadows to ambush, the news has been transmitted to the governor, just wait for the commander's soldiers and horses, once the governor waves his troops to clear the past, immediately rush to Qinzhou with my letter." ”

The scout hid the letter in his bosom and immediately left the city to wait.

Shunyin was just about to walk to the city, when a person suddenly came from the opposite side.

"Ma'am." It was Yan Huizhen, still dressed in bearded clothes, who had just walked from the other side of the street, his face was very solemn, and he asked when he approached, "Madame, do you want to help?" ”

Shunyin stopped: "How can I help?" ”

Yan Huizhen frowned and looked at the city: "My Yan family is only worried about coming back to the siege of the year, although I was young and didn't see it in person, but I don't think it's a trivial matter, Madame can guard it here, and I can also move back to the Falcon for Madame to go west to reinforce the army." ”

Shun Yin looked at her unexpectedly and smiled soothingly: "Although it is a good thing, the Uighur reinforcements are still too far away, but the enemy army is close at hand, and the nearest reinforcements can only be moved to the Central Plains, I appreciate your kindness." ”

Yan Hui really thought that she was not at ease: "At the moment, there is no enemy in the west, the road is safe, Madame don't have to worry, this is also what my Yan family has explained, not on a whim." ”

Seeing that she was serious, Shun Yin thought for a while, and had no choice but to say: "Since the Yan family has this heart, then cooperate with the defenders to stick to the west gate, the west is temporarily safe, and if there is anything, it is good to respond at any time." ”

Yan Huizhen took a careful note and answered, so he finally didn't say any more.

Shunyin walked up to the top of the city, the drums were still ringing, and the sky was dark in the distance, dragging the dust and smoke, and it was the patrolling team fighting with the remnants of the mixed in.

Before she saw Mu Changzhou's personal leadership, she looked northeast and knew that he had gone there first......

The battle outside Liangzhou City was still going on, but the soldiers and horses were not in a hurry to clear it.

A group of five hundred light horsemen quietly came out of the pass and headed straight for a rugged plain.

When the wind blows, the low grass on the plain undulates as if a hidden figure will emerge from under the grass at any time.

Mu Changzhou looked around, identified the direction, picked up the bow from the horseback with one hand, raised it with the other, and suddenly fell.

"Huh" There was a light sound of a bright blade, and Hu Xiao'er took the lead and rushed over.

The light cavalry behind immediately followed and pounced, and rushed straight forward to kill.

The moment the sound sounded, in the uneven ravines and depressions around them, under the dense grass, as if they were alarmed, a group of hidden soldiers suddenly came out, as if they had been turned out by force, panicked and hurriedly picked up the blade to resist, and even wore the Liangzhou standard uniform.

The light horse rode in mercilessly, and the tip of the lance was picked up, and there was a terrible howl.

From here to the east, they can climb the mountains and mix into the trade routes, and then rely on the same Han people's appearance and familiar Liangzhou situation to mix with the periphery of Liangzhou City.

Although it was difficult and dangerous, they were willing to fight for their own enemies.

A scout galloped up and reported the news.

Mu Changzhou reined in the periphery, listened to it in his ears, nodded his head, his eyes were always fixed on the killing field, and he rode out suddenly, galloped to the rear, stretched out his arms and bows, and shot two arrows one after another.

In the middle of the two remnant lieutenants who wanted to escape, the two fell off their horses back and forth, and they didn't shout.

He reined in his horse and rode lightly, and the remnants of the remnants had already fallen to their knees, and they all asked for mercy.

Hu Xiao'er snorted: "The thief is the most hateful!" Confession will not leave you! After scolding, he panted and ran to him, "I didn't see that woman!" ”

"It's about to show up, too." Mu Changzhou's gaze swept around, "Leave as far as you can, and go back to the outside of the city to clear the remnants of the mixed soldiers, especially the path to the Central Plains." ”

It's clean here, and there are only a few of those who mix in, so it's easy to do.

Hu Xiao'er immediately turned around and arranged to lead people back......

The drums of the war stopped for a while, but the city of Liangzhou was almost silent.

Shunyin stood on the city, carefully reading the news sent from everywhere, knowing that the real war had not yet begun, but it would come at any time.

"Ma'am." A scout quietly approached, whispering a new finding.

Shunyin looked at his mouth shape, and his eyebrows were slightly twisted, but he didn't show it.

Outside, the soldiers and horses roamed away, and suddenly they were cleaned up.

She looked intently and saw the figure of Hu Xiao'er beating his horse, only to realize that his soldiers and horses had rushed back to the outside of the city to clear the remnants.

Almost at the same time, I saw that the scouts she had arranged to send the letter to Qinzhou were leaving quickly.

The sharp whistle had long since stopped, and the dust and smoke dragged around gradually disappeared until it dissipated without a trace, and was crushed by the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou.

Shunyin's heart was slightly relaxed, and she saw the dignified figure of Xuanjia galloping from a distance, and the cloak was flying.

She immediately went down, and as soon as she arrived at the city, Mu Changzhou had already ridden into the city.

He dismounted, strode over, stood to her right, and whispered, "Divide here, and they should be about to move." ”

Of course, Shun Yin understands that those remnants are just ants in the eyes of the two-faced army, and the means used to harass and entangle the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou have been cleared now, and the movement may not have reached most of the two sides, but it can't be hidden for too long, and it may be pressed in soon.

That's the real war.

She looked left and right, thinking about what the scout had just reported, and whispered, "I'm afraid they still have troops and horses moving." ”

So they probably have even more soldiers.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a dull trumpet sound.

Shun Yin looked up uncertainly.

A soldier galloped from outside the city: "The Western Turkic army has advanced!" Sashi is guarding the pass! ”

Suddenly the sound of drums sounded again at the head of the city, and it was much more rapid than before.

The generals defending the city hurriedly ran away, shouting and arranging, and the footsteps of the defenders sounded.

Shun Yin's heart tightened unconsciously, and her hand was grabbed by Mu Changzhou.

"You are still in the city, continue to deal with me, be careful." He let go and left.

Shun Yin grabbed his fingers with his backhand, subconsciously took a step closer, covered it with a cloak, approached him, and stared at him, the meaning was self-evident.

Mu Changzhou turned slightly, blocked her, quietly put one hand around her waist, and whispered: "With you and me, there will be no more previous things, and you will also come to answer me at that time." ”

Shunyin let go.

Mu Changzhou lowered his head, moved his lips, and said another word silently.

Her eyes moved, her face softened, and she nodded.

Mu Changzhou smiled, walked over and got on his horse, glanced at her, and galloped out of the city.

In an instant, the rear soldiers and horses were gone, and the drums at the head of the city were beating more and more, indicating that the battle had come.
